Can we revert to the previous interface? I hated this when it was in Beta and prefer the old side menu, the new one is too large and clunky and no more spinning circle showing when a section is refreshing.

I would be really happy for a possibility to switch to the old menu.
Would like to know how things like this get approved with no possibility to switch to the old UI.
Its like the forced Windows 8 startmenu.
Two words: Hate it!

From what I’ve seen s far, you can only rollback unless there is a catastrophic blowup!! If there is no other source on income, that would mean hey operate more like an open source WordPress; where there’s a bunch of volunteers doing “whatever.”
Once again… ugh!
Yes I am in agreement, What I dislike the most is the recommended section that the web and app interface appear to default to once an item is selected from the left-hand menu. You then have to choose library to see all of your content. Or is there a way of disabling that altogether so it just goes right to library?
You will find that your click on “Library” is remembered, so next time you won’t land in “Recommended”, but directly in “Library”.
Provided “Remember selected tab” is checked in the Web Client’s General Settings. I thought I had to click that when finding it disabled by default. I could have been mistaken.
AFAIR it’s checked by default.

I second this request to get the old interface back. When you manage more than one physical server, the ability to switch between servers and get only the libraries on that server is a helpful thing.
Having all libraries together is good for normal viewers, not so much for the administrator. Especially when you access the IP address for a specific server, but get the same interface.
I think the new design style will work ok, but bring back the ability to switch between servers so the home screen shows libraries and recent additions on that server only. Maybe a checkbox on the “edit home screen” dialog that enables this server switching view.
Add one more for reversion. This new interface is buggy, difficult to navigate and understand and useless to most people with just one server. By all means offer this as an interface alternative but bring back what we all liked and understood.
I now have four servers where I only really have one and I can’t remove the useless ‘Unavailable’ ones. I don’t want the pinning, if I created a library I had the option of displaying it. Now I don’t know what’s going on and most of what actually works has been demoted to more!
AND I don’t want a different selection on by various GUI devices I want them all the same!
